N1  - Includes bibliographical references (p. 400-401) and index
N2  - What do Eagle Island, the Spite House, the Schooner Bowdoin and Katahdin Iron Works have in common?  All of them are registered historic sites.  Maine boasts more than six hundred such historic properties: prehistoric shell middens, early colonial settlements and forts, sea captain's homes - as well as many classic churches, academies and public buildings - but until now no concise guide to the enormous variety of significant historic landmarks has been available.  Maine's Historic Places fills that gap.  Compiled by the staff of the Maine Historic Preservation Commission.  This one volume describes all the Maine properties on the National Register of Historic Places and is loaded with fascinating historical and architectural highlights.  Seven regional maps and 226 photographs from the commission's archives make Maine's Historic Places an ideal introduction to the best-preserved examples of Maine's hstory.  You'll want to keep this book handy whenever you travel through the state of Maine
